The Party of "No"

Technorati and Me

Technorati is indexing me again! They had to make a code change to fix
the problem with my blog getting stuck in their queue. Kudos to Eric M.
and the guys at
GetSatisfaction.com
where they have "community powered support for Technorati".

Well, they're "sorta, kinda" indexing me anyway. It's on a 24 hour tape
delay or something. So I never get picked up by Memeorandum because they
pull from Technorati and Technorati has stuff I posted yesterday
listed as my latest blog entry. And that's old news to Memeorandum.

Wankers.

New national science standards that make the teaching of global warming part of
the public school curriculum are slated to be released this month, potentially
ending an era in which climate skepticism has been allowed to seep into the
nation's classrooms.

The
Next Generation Science Standards were developed by the National Research
Council, the National Science Teachers Association, the American Association
for the Advancement of Science, the nonprofit Achieve and more than two dozen
states. The latest draft recommends that educators teach the evidence for
man-made climate change starting as early as elementary school and incorporate
it into all science classes, ranging from earth science to chemistry. By eighth
grade, students should understand that "human activities, such as the release
of greenhouse gases from burning fossil fuels, are major factors in the current
rise in Earth's mean surface temperature (global warming)," the standards say.

They've taken God out of the schools, and replaced Him with the religion of
Climate Change. Thou Shalt Not Doubt Global Warming. Even as the
evidence piles up to
refute it. Remember when these same savants were
proclaiming the onset of a new Ice Age? How'd that work out?

Scientists say that if natural factors were still governing the climate, the
Northern Hemisphere would probably be destined to freeze over again in several
thousand years. "We were on this downward slope, presumably going back toward
another ice age," Dr. Marcott said.

Good thing we're ending an era in which climate skepticism has been allowed to
seep into the nation's classrooms! Because who wouldn't want their grandchildren
to freeze their butts off while hunting mastadons in Equador?
